RE: Log reporting error - No actual error

[Mosh Teitelbaum]

Jeez.  Well, I can't see any problems in the code that you posted.

If you try to CFOUTPUT FORM.FormFields, what does it give you?  And, if it
gives you a list as you would expect, try iterating over that list,
evaluating each one as in:


FORM.FormFields = #FORM.FormFields#


FORM.#CurrEle# = 
#Evaluate("FORM.#CurrEle#")#


FORM.FormFields is Not Defined

RE: Jsp Vs Cfm (CFMX) -- Test Code

[Joe Eugene]

Would the below be an easy change in CFMX?


or

int foobar = 1;


Would declare a coldfusion.runtime.Integer instead of the following.


or

foobar = 1;


Would declare a coldfusion.runtime.Variable.

Sean, even I can write a  pre-compile scan that builds a table of any 
variables that are defined and typed -- and the a post-compile scan 
that replaces the currently generated code with optimal code for any 
variables that are defined.  It'd be a kludge, but it would work. 
(where is that old Pascal book that with the compiler example?)

You are giving reasons that it would be hard to do it right -- 
admittedly true!  However the question should be: is it worth doing? 
Not today or tomorrow, but whenever it makes sense for competitive, 
sales and technical reasons!

Yes it would -- but being optional it would be transparent to those who

If these operations  were justified, why not (although, really,  how 
much demand is there for it -- we aren't using CF to write compilers, 
file systems or db engines -- just how often does one use bitmaps? ).

Hah, I knew that would get you!   OK, I'll drop down to Java just to 
get a null.  But the ability to pass a null only in cfobject would be a 
start -- yes it would apply to all variable types (oh, there *are* 
variable types), but the changes would be localized to the cfobject 
tag, and an IsNull function that are sensitive to all variable types.

But, null is something that CF eventually must address -- surprised 
that they didn't do it in CFMX.

Just remember that these are not meant as criticisms, but as ways to 
make one of the best systems even better --

If we didn't care, we wouldn't bother!

Hey Eric,
 
We ran into the same thing!  it was fixed once we installed a video driver.  we 
originally thought it might be a generator conflict(don't ask why we still had that).
 
We brought it up with MM but never heard back on it.  I'm glad someone else 
encountered the problem.

Subject: CFChart w/o video card possible?



An odd question, but one I had to ask.  I'm currently evaluating CFMX at
work and was given a dinky old Pentium 2 to do the testing on.
Recently, the company was able to scrounge up a MaxAttach 6000 NAS
server for me (a dual P3 800 rack mounted network attached storage
server, incase you don't know).  So I installed CFMX on the NAS server
and it's really been flying; until I tried a little application I built
using CFCHART.  It gives me a 500 error about something amiss in the
graphing engine, and it worked fine on the P2.  Doing some more
research, it looks to be a video card driver issue.



Well, the thing is, it's a NAS unit, with no video card.  When I connect
trough terminal services and look at the display adapter in the control
panel, it's listed as "null VGA".  Any ideas?  Thoughts?



Thanks,

RiX

RE: FW: Jsp Vs Cfm (CFMX) -- Test Code

[Matt Liotta]

Well CF could use the same technique that VB did. VB optionally allows
variables to be declared as a type. If no type is declared then the
variable is considered of type variant. For example, the following could
work with CF.


or

int foobar = 1;


Would declare a coldfusion.runtime.Integer instead of the following.


or

foobar = 1;


Would declare a coldfusion.runtime.Variable.

code optimization (was RE: Jsp Vs Cfm (CFMX) -- Test Code)

[Matt Liotta]

After having seen thread after thread on this list and others discussing
code optimization for CF I am left with the following impression. People
seem to be missing the forest for the trees.

Every idea/technique that has been suggested thus far for code
optimization is a waste of time for almost all applications. Sure some
of these ideas/techniques code save a few milliseconds here and there,
but they offer very small gains in scalability. There are much simpler
ways to achieve greater scalability in less time than code optimization
e.g. caching. I suggest people spend their time seeking out these ways
instead of spending time on code optimization. You should only spend
time on code optimization after every other performance enhancement has
been tried. Further, servers are so cheap these days that adding
additional hardware tends to be far cheaper than developer time.

Not "easily", no. Adding type specifications to a type-less language - 
especially *optional* type specifications - complicates the compiler to 
quite a degree. Every reference to a variable has to be checked for known 
type information and, if present, either generate the appropriate code or 
warn of inappropriate usage. (If not present, it generates the same code 
as now). Read that carefully: *every* reference. That potentially impacts 
a lot of places in the code generator.

I agree that being able to declare types in CF would be a nice enhancement.
  But it would be a major change to the language.

And then folks will want bitwise operations and full Java expression 
syntax inside cfscript! :)

> BTW, nulls should also be allowed in CF!

Hah! Adding 'null' to a language that doesn't currently support it is a 
*major* change and it's mostly a run-time change. It would cause a huge 
ripple through the CF language to add null because the semantics need to 
be defined (in documentation!) and it could impact every single expression 
in the language. Consider isStruct() - should isStruct( null ) return 
false or should it just fail with a null pointer exception (which is what 
happens now if you manage to feed it a null). What about isDefined()? 
Right now, if you manage to create a struct key entry with a null value, 
isDefined( "str.key" ) is false but structKeyExists( str, "key" ) is true.
  In fact isDefined( "v" ) is false whenever either 'v' is not declared *or*
  it has a null value.

That would make ColdFusion quite a different language! :)

Yes, it's certainly one possible approach, allowing the user to declare 
variables with a type (and extending the CF types to include "integer" 
would also be a useful enhancement, instead of just "numeric" and "binary"
).

I actually prefer the code analysis approach since it allows CFMX's 
compiler to evolve without requiring users to change their code and could 
substantially speed up certain constructs in legacy code.

Re: FW: Jsp Vs Cfm (CFMX) -- Test Code

[Dick Applebaum]

Sean

I was not suggesting that CFMX try to track an variable to determine  
its type.

Rather I suggest that CFMX allow us to tell it a variable's type  
(optionally) so that it can use that to generate efficient code,

How hard can it be -- even VBS and JavaScript can do it?

Sure, if you don't do things right the code will break -- but the user  
who wants efficiency takes on additional responsibility. -- makes  
development/debugging somewhat more difficult (but less difficult than  
dropping down to Java).

You wouldn't do it everywhere in a program -- just where it makes sense.

Again, I say we are told to lock and scope for best practices -- why  
cant we type where it counts?

Re: Jsp Vs Cfm (CFMX) -- Test Code

[Dick Applebaum]

Daron

I think the point that Joe, I and some others are trying too make is 
that we want *more* optimized CF-generated Java code rather than code 
in Java itself.

The reason that a knowledgeable Java person like joe is looking at the 
CF-Generated code is to see if he can determine why it is so slow -- so 
that maybe something can be done to improve the performance of 
CF-generated code by:

1) avoiding things that cause inefficient code generation

2) making suggestions how/where code-generation could be improved.

I am not a Java heavy, and I have the same goal.  I can look at the 
generated code and see it is correct, but inefficient (though I can't 
say how).

But, if the problem is caused by lack of typing, it seems to me that 
this is something MM can fix rather easily by allowing type definition 
by those who want to do it, and generating efficient code if it is 
present or use the current generation if it is not.

Sean made a point that CF has to assume that numbers (including loop 
counters) are real -- I can understand that -- if CF is not told 
differently.

However if one had the option of defining a type attribute of long for 
x, Cf could generate much better code.

I've programmed a lot of loops in since my first programming class in 
1956 (yes I am old).  I have yet to use a real as a loop counter except 
in some classroom problem.

I think that CF would lose little and gain quite a lot if it allowed an 
optional type definition.

Then it could generate better Java code.

And there would be less need to program parts of your application in 
Java.

Think of it as extending the reach of CF to places it could not go 
before.

BTW, nulls should also be allowed in CF!

Re: For Jesse

Absolutely--- Not!

I once ragged a contemporary for sloshing around in the "Bowels of BSD" 
-- not a pretty thought!

My only prior 'Nix experience is Quinx on PC (pre windows) and Yellow 
Dog Linux on the Mac -- both were more trouble than they were worth.

I ran across the quote in a column by Tim O'Reilly

http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2002/09/17/switcher.html?page=3

The attribution is to Steven Champeon, a contributor to Unix Power 
Tools, 3rd Edition writes that OS X is for people who love Unix and the 
Mac

I laughed out loud when I read it & thought of Jesse -- could just as 
easily been for Matt!

Nothing meant here, except to try and share a laugh -- it is funny (at 
least to me).

RE: Jsp Vs Cfm (CFMX) -- Test Code

[Darron J. Schall]

I see the argument you're making... but you misread/misunderstood the
point of what I was saying

CFMX is awesome in that it allows you to develop applications very
rapidly. Compared to java, it's much simpler and allows for faster
development.  Java is awesome in that it allows for complex
enterprise-level computations to be done in an efficient/optimized
manner.  It may take longer to code if you don't know it that well, but
if you don't know it that well then you don't fall into the category of
people that I was trying to make a point to.  

It makes sense from a programming standpoint to handle the "difficult"
things in java where you know your code will be as optimized as you can
make it, rather than trying to make the CFMX compiler optimize code that
you could probably better optimize yourself (I apologize for this
sounding redundant, it's late...).  When you're digging into the .java
files generated by the pages and looking at how it could be optimized,
doesn't it make sense to just write the optimized code in java if you
know what you're doing?  If you don't agree, then, again, you're missing
the point.  You still use CFMX, but when performance counts and highly
optimized files are necessary, it starts becoming more of a front-end
with a java enterprise-level backend on large-scale applications.

I wasn't knocking CFMX at all -- I was saying that it makes sense to
optimize your own "complex" code with java if you've got the
experience... Java + CFMX is a great marriage, when used in conjunction
at the right times.  :-)

I don't know off-hand. We have https on the Online Store but that's on a

separate set of servers... I accessed the https version of the downloads

link and didn't get any security warnings (IE5.2). Sounds like your
system 
is a good candidate for a test? Maybe you could remove your Flash Player

and try the page to see what happens?

Note the assumption that all numbers in CF are (potentially) floating

the compiler not to do the more complicated stuff... except... well... 
many years ago (when I was working in the compiler industry) I worked on a 
deep-flow code analyzer that could track values (and types) and make 
optimizations based on what it found... That sort of analysis *could* 
determine that x and loops were set to integers and adjust the code 
accordingly... however, it would need to introduce alias variables (of 
type 'int') that shadowed the real values and then determine that it could 
hoist the real/shadow synchronization out of the loop. This sort of stuff 
is *hard*... You have to consider 'threats' to variables that are being 
shadowed (i.e., anything that could change their value that isn't part of 
the mainline code, e.g., a function call - which could set caller.x = 123.
45).

Beware: cfloginuser does not work outside cflogin! It seems to for the

RE: run CF from db

[Hal Helms]

I haven't tried this trick with CFMX, but 18 months ago or so, Rick Moon
and I were faced with this problem: the situation required a LOT of code
to be stored in the DB and then executed dynamically. That meant writing
and then reading a file, which I was very concerned with for performance
reasons. We ended up creating a RAM disk and using that. We got
excellent performance. Now, that may all be different with CFMX, but may
be worth a look still.

Writing it to a temp file and cfincluding it is an option, but I don't 
recommend it. As soon as you are on CF MX, compilation will kill your 
performance.

Hi,

 

Calling all users of Apache ... I'm after anyone that has installed CFMX on
Redhat with Apache as their webserver?

 

I am wondering what the CFMX alternative of the Apache CF module is - as
obviously the foundations are quite different to CF5.

 

Current status:

 

New server with the following installed:

 

Redhat 7.2

Apache 1.3.22

CFMX

 

Serving .html files fine. Just need to do relevant tweaking for Apache to
communicate with CFMX.

 

Any pointers towards documentation would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Sarah.

RE: soEditor was RE: TextArea & MS Word

[S . Isaac Dealey]

You mean placing Flash movies within the content area? ...

I'm not real certain exactly how I'm going to implement it as of yet -- my
cms has a "preview" feature which allows you to preview a page if you have
it open in the content editor, but when editing smaller bits of content (
menus, news articles which might be a subclass of Text instead of being a
subclass of Page for various reasons ), much of the formatting may depend
heavily on elements of the page which would be unknown at the level at which
the content is being edited, so previewing a menu for instance, might mean
nothing without knowing what style sheet or other formatting elements might
apply to the page, since the menu might be included in many different pages
with many different layouts and style definitions...

But now I'm rambling and probably not making a whole lot of sense... So...

I'm not real sure how I plan to implement it at this point... I'd like to
implement it in a way that's inclusive of the #coldfusionvariable# macro
method of embedding these smaller content items within pages and other
containers, so I guess I'll be spending some time on those forums. :) It's
good to know that you were able to use your own Image management tool
without much difficulty, as I may be trying to do much the same...

No, it is self-contained (at leats the unsupported Mac OS X versions 
were).

I really resent those downloaded front-end stubs  to a massive 
CPU-monopolizing download.  This was particularly irritating when I  
lived in the foothils and only could get a 33.1 dial-up line.  I'd 
schedule my downloads during off-hours, only to be surprised by another 
3-4 hour download during the install.  MS perfected this technique 
(it's as if they were embarassed by the size of the download)

RE: Timezones and CF

[Michael Kear]

I have the same issue, because my server is in WashingtonDC and I want to be
showing Australian Eastern Time.  So I have the following line in my
application.cfm file:

<.cfset austime= #now()# + #createTimeSpan(0,8,0,0)#>


and instead of using Now() anywhere, I just use the variable #austime#.
This variable also advances the date as well as the time.  It's accurate to
5 minutes, which is how accurate the sysadmin keeps the clock on the server.
I'm taking issue with him on that but that's another story.


When daylight savings changes,  since ours moves in the opposite direction
to the US daylight saving and on different dates, I just have to change the
timespan value in one file to correct my times again all over my sites.

RE: Timezones and CF

[Matthew Walker]

What you need to do is stop using now(). Create your own variable
containing the correct time as I suggested earlier, e.g. by adding
 to application.cfm.

Then whenever you would use now() use request.gmt instead. 

#timeformat(request.gmt,"HH:mm")#
#dateformat(request.gmt,"dd/mm/")#

Yeah, I've been watching this thread with curiosity - can someone humour me
too? ;-)

The main issue being discussed seems to portability, no? You download the
file, copy it around your network, wherever, and the machines that install
it don't need to be connected to the net. Isn't this is the case with the
CFMX updater? I downloaded over 14 MB. Don't tell me that was the
'installer' front for something that was downloading other stuff from the MM
site when you ran it! :-o

Appreciate there's more issues with regard to tracking changes, etc., but on
this portability front - is there a strict, official difference between a
service pack and an updater?

CFChart w/o video card possible?

[Eric]

An odd question, but one I had to ask.  I'm currently evaluating CFMX at
work and was given a dinky old Pentium 2 to do the testing on.
Recently, the company was able to scrounge up a MaxAttach 6000 NAS
server for me (a dual P3 800 rack mounted network attached storage
server, incase you don't know).  So I installed CFMX on the NAS server
and it's really been flying; until I tried a little application I built
using CFCHART.  It gives me a 500 error about something amiss in the
graphing engine, and it worked fine on the P2.  Doing some more
research, it looks to be a video card driver issue.

 

Well, the thing is, it's a NAS unit, with no video card.  When I connect
trough terminal services and look at the display adapter in the control
panel, it's listed as "null VGA".  Any ideas?  Thoughts?

 

Thanks,

RiX

OK, humor me (I have no real server experience).

Why is an updater like CFMX at a disadvantage when compared to a 
service pack.

The service packs (MS Windows) I have installed all had a GUI that 
operated similar to the updater.  (Only you'd download 1 service pack 
only to find out it had another service pack as a prerequisite)... My 
last experience was when windows was updated to incorporate the browser 
into the os & then remove it -- what a mess!

As I recall, one or more of these service packs required an internet 
connection as part of the install process.

I can understand that if you have a change management program that you 
would want to furnish the replacement modules and instructions to it, 
rather than let some foreign program apply the changes.

What advantage does the service pack have here?

Anyway, is there something I am missing regards service packs vs 
updater.

TIA

Dick

Timezones and CF

[Mark]

Hullo,

I wondered if someone could help me... also I'm new here... please be
gentle.

I have a problem with adding dates and times - I just can't get my head
around it - and at the moment it doesn't work

#timeformat(dateadd("h",5,now()),"HH:mm")#


whoo give me the correct time here in the uk.. the server my application
is on is in NYC so in US terms I am 5 hours in front of there.

Which I thought was great... until I just tried it... it about 01:00 am.
That code turns the time in NYC 8.00 pm... the only problem is... on my date
fields... its says it's Sunday not Monday as it is here. 16 September
UK - 15 September NYC

As a note I do not want to use the local machines clock.. as people always
mess with them...

Yes, it's a very common problem. A server might be on an internal network,
with no external access. Or, it may be configured to deny external access
except when done to and/or through a specific port by a specific
application. Or, you might have a change management program which requires
you to closely track what patches are added, and how they're added (which
this updater might not do - I haven't seen how it actually fetches multiple
updates, or whether it lists those updates a la Windows Update).

Writing it to a temp file and cfincluding it is an option, but I don't 
recommend it. As soon as you are on CF MX, compilation will kill your 
performance.

RE: FW: Jsp Vs Cfm (CFMX) -- Test Code

[Joe Eugene]

The basic comparision has failed so.. u want alternative comparison...(real
world)
well try it yourself... good examples are "String Comparison", "generating
dynamic
variables". Any which way its going to fail.. due to the "Java Strong
Language Type".
If it was 20ms and 100ms... nobody really cares. we could all sit back and
say oh.. i write
4 lines of code in CF and you write 20lines in JSP.whatever..(20ms and
3135ms is some difference)
  I dont know if everbody missed this one
  loops=100;
  for(x=0;x<=loops;x=x+1) // this "<=loops" took double the time..(8-9
seconds)
  What if you just had to do the same 10 times in multiple pages creating
variables
  or something of that sort. (Perhaps the argument will be.. oh the user is
not
  going to know the difference...whatever.. we can argue about this all day)

 This all comes down to the fact that the CFMX compiler could be optimized
 to produce more of an optimized code OR have strong type(int, double) as an
option
 for developers who think they need them. (others just ignore it and stick
with old style code)

BTW We are currently playing with MX's ability to parse regular HTML

brilliant for cleaning up HTML that comes out of a WYSIWYG editor.

You can't use evaluate to run tags - only functions.

You can save the db field into a file using cffile, and then use cfhttp to run the 
file.

Generally this won't work. It would only work if you were storing a cf

run CF from db

[Nick Varner]

Is there a way to evaluate Coldfusion after it is pulled from a db instead
of CF thinking its text?

Re: HTTP file limit?

[jon hall]

Nope, as you found out HTTP doesn't set limits on much of anything. It
all depends on the server and client. You will run into practical
limitations long before anything else.

Tested with a Word document from Randell Adkins on a unicode enabled 
setup and it worked fine. Hail unicode. Feel free to do your own tests 
at http://130.161.67.253:8500/www/index.cfm (if down, try again later, 
it is not a production machine).

If they have a version for CF MX that can do Unicode you should be fine.

BTW, probably unicode is not strictly necessary. You could also go 
search for another charset that has everything you need, but I doubt 
that is worth it.

Get your hands on a Mac for an hour and play with iTunes -- they don't 
store the songs in a db, but have lotsa' features and a great GUI -- 
ideas for your standalone app.

setCredentials() &

[Ben Johnson]

All,
Collin Tobin helped me with my last problem off-list but I came
across another strange problem.  We have an RIA (FMX/CFMX) that
initializes a gateway connection and then does a setCredentials() with
an authorization string.  The ColdFusion server catches the
authorization code and logs in the user for that call to the server like
this:















(Note that the  is not in the  because I don't
want to maintain a session on the server-side but rather with Flash
Remoting headers)

This code works great all the time except for the first time that we
call the CFCs on the server after not using the app for a while.  I
checked the NetConnection Debugger and it gives me something like this
for the first call:

-> Connect - http://www.mysite.com/flashservices/gateway
-> AddHeader - Credentials
-> Call - myCFC.myFunction( myarg1, myarg2)
-> Connect -
http://www.mysite.com/flashservices/gateway?CFID=32192&CFTOKEN=098401843

The result for that Call comes back ok, but every subsequent call errors
out with a "User not authorized" error.

Then when I close the app and go back in, it gives me this in the
NetConnection Debugger:

-> Connect - http://www.mysite.com/flashservices/gateway
-> AddHeader - Credentials
-> Call - myCFC.myFunction( myarg1, myarg2)

And everything returns without an error.  I assume that the reason this
happens is that there is a new session initialized and my Flash Remoting
headers are erased.  I figure I could do a call to a function that
doesn't do anything and then set the credentials, but that's just ugly.
Anybody have a better way around this?

Thanks.

You might find Ben Forta's latest book of interest.

The first case study is a flash/CFMX based MP3 jukebox. I'm pretty sure 
it's open source too...?

DB2 stored procedure missing column names

[Brian Fox]

Calling a DB2 stored procedure such as:


{CALL TSIS.STORPRS6('R','123456789',NULL,NULL)}


#storedproc.columnlist#


Produces:

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8

I can't get to the data as variable references like #storedproc.1# produce a
CF error.  It seems like there must be a way to name the columns on a stored
procedure.

Which direction direction should this be tackled from?  Is this a DB2 stored
procedure error or is there some CF trick I've missed?

Thanks!
Brian

RE: Upload size limit (was CFMX Updater)

[Matt Liotta]

There is no official size limit, but both web servers and proxies can
set their own limits which may affect a user's experience. Further, the
server is not required to buffer the entire file into RAM before writing
it to disk. However, this was the behavior of CF in previous versions. I
am not sure if it is still true with CFMX.

RE: Slightly OT - Any good CFMX demos out there?

Yes, I've seen Petmarket, and it does show well - I was just wondering if anyone out 
there had either seen or created anything else that they wouldn't mind us looking at.

Thanks,

CFMX cfchart colors

[Eric O'Brien]

I'm trying to find a way to make each data point for a chart series a unique
color.  The colorlist attribute seems to only be  available for pie
charts??? It seems pretty weak that Macromedia would not include this basic
functionality. Any ideas?

I found the problem to this. When I had the GetPageContext.Forward() on the

still error out with err.io.short_read. I just know restarted the services

Also be sure before installing the updater that there are no 'jrun.exe' processes 
running.  If there are, kill them.

I agree with this.

No point in optimizing just to make esoteric test cases run better.

Does any one have any real-world pages coded in both?

Can you use the same technique to reveal the Java source generated by 
jsp?  (Remember I can't run jsp on OS X).

RE: CFMX Updater

[todd]

In my case, all I did was shut down the Apache, CFMX services and that was 
it.  Is it possible that IIS is still holding on to the connector files?  
Not sure.


Here's a question for anyone paying attention... I read back on the 
archive and it's not really clear or obvious.

Does this mean that after I run the updater, do I keep the .exe file ...?  
If and when update 2 becomes available, do I just run this .exe file again 
or do I have to go download a new updater?

Thanks,
~Todd

RE: CFMX Updater

[Ken Brocx]

Did you ever get it to run, Matt?
I'm no server pro but I installed the darn thing you think this would be
a piece of cake :)  I'm following the instructions on the site and
the installer, I read the release notes and understood them Oh well.
And people actually complain about Microsoft

RE: textarea

you can limit them to how many characters they type...

function TextMaxLength(evt, field)

charCode = evt.keyCode;

}

Re: textarea

[Darron J. Schall]

The following should be of some help to you

function limitArea(){
   content = document.form_name.text_area_name.value;
   len = content.length;
   if (len > 500) {
  content = content.substr(0,500);
   alert('Your input is limited to 500 characters.');
   document.form_name.text_area_name.value = content;
  }
}



Feel free to modify the limitArea() function to optimize it a little bit...

Happy coding,

Re: CFMX updater - service pack?

[Dick Applebaum]

Is that really an issue with server software?

Would the silent install option solve the problem if you have multiple 
Developer versions deployed?

Does the license allow you to have multiple developer versions deployed?

RE: Verity: What is in a collection?

[Angel Stewart]

Heh heh..

This is cool..I did this..and...the collection is completely EMPTY!

The query though returns 4 records..but...umm...obviously the problem is
my CFINDEX tag...
Hmmm.

I created the collection through the CF Administrator then used the
CFINDEX tag to populate it..or so I thought

I did not use K2,though. This is all on CF5.



SELECT  tblCompany.entryid,tblCompany.CName, tblCompany.CAddr,
tblCompany.CAddr2, tblCompany.CState, tblCompany.CZip,
tblCompany.CCountry, tblCompany.Ctel1, tblCompany.Ctel2,
tblCompany.cemail, tblCompany.curl

FROM tblCompany












To me..that CFINDEX statement should more than do the job. The query
returns the results I want to search..can't get much simpler than
that.I've cut the Body field down to just the company name too, although
I want to search on all the fields in the database(MS Access).

What the heck is wrong? I'm not even getting an error message.

Sure you can use the cfdump tag and spit out all the goods.


I highly recommend u use K2 all you have to do is set up the alias info

The easiest solution, since this is your development machine, would probably
be to just disable IIS, and install Apache. It sounds like you've got enough
other problems with this machine that it might be hard to track down exactly
what's going on. 

And, for the love of God, to avoid future web server virus problems, just
disable external access to the web server, if that's an option for you. I'm
running five web servers on my laptop - not simultaneously, since they're
all configured to listen on port 80 - but I've configured my machine to
disallow traffic to port 80. I note that you're running a personal firewall,
which should make this pretty easy. Even without that, you can use
functionality within the OS to deny inbound traffic, and you could configure
the web server itself to listen only on 127.0.0.1.

OT - How do you feel about...

[Judith Dinowitz]

Tony,

We had tried doing something like this but found that the time involved was tremendous 
(as Michael said). Would this better fit the bill?

http://www.fusionauthority.com/alert/index.cfm?alertid=112#talk1
http://www.fusionauthority.com/alert/index.cfm?alertid=112#talk2
http://www.fusionauthority.com/alert/index.cfm?alertid=112#talk3

This was something Michael and I had started doing called Best of Talk. I have Eron 
Cohen and Michael doing tech editing on this; my main problem is the time it takes to 
write this delays Fusion Authority. Would you (or someone else) be interested in 
writing Best of Talk?

As you can see from the URLs quoted, because it's just a summary of the thread that 
gives the "essence" of it (what is the question and major points of the thread), and 
while I haven't put contributors in yet, we could change that. The idea is to 
highlight the important threads so that CF'ers can look into a thread, if it's 
important. (Therefore, we include the links to the archive thread on HoF.)

As for you being a technical editor, editor and writer, I don't think that's really 
doable. Just ask Charlie Arehart (who tried doing what you're suggesting and found it 
to be a MAJOR job, and that was just writing it.)

On the other hand, Tony,  I have someone who could do the technical editing of Best of 
Talk if we had someone who could do the summaries. I can edit it for grammar, spelling 
and English. Is writing the Best of Talks (5 or so summaries per day of CF-Talk) a job 
you're interested in? And if not, is there anyone else who would be interested in this?
